@caseyliss I recently got into selfhosting. I bought a Beelink mini NAS. It has slots for 6 SSDs. You can use 5 for storage and 1 for the operating system. I use TrueNAS, it has been smooth so far.
I host:
- Immich
- Jellyfin
- ChangeDectection.io
- wardenvault
- tailscale
- bentopdf
- smb file mount
It is a bit expensive to install SSDs, but it should fix your write bottleneck.

Almost 15 years ago I went to the Jon Stewart's / Stephen Colbert's Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear. At the time, I felt the US couldn't become more divided. It did. Today I am worried that it will become more fractured. I hope I am wrong.

Yesterday's blackout in Portugal was really eye opening. Here are a few random thoughts.
I am thankful that my home wifi is on a battery that lasts at least a day.
I never heard the term "black start" before yesterday. Apparently that is the process to restart the grid after everything is offline.
No matter how much you prepare for extreme situations you can't control everything. You need a lot of personal luck. I am glad I wasn't in an elevator or underground on the metro.
Today I learned that OpenAI "credits" expire after 1 year. I didn't lose much money, but it is very shitty to not even send an email notifying you in advance that your credits will expire.
Is there any website like Geekbench that shows tokens / second an LLM can generate, by machine, model, context, quantization etc?
Every day of my life feels closer and closer to the black mirror episode Nosedive. I don't want to rate my experience at a hardware store buying caulk.
I don't ever rate anything, but if you give something an 8 out of 10 the NPS police will come and arrest you. "Don't you love us" "What can we do to get you to a 9"
NOT EVERYTHING IS "10 out of 10"! THAT IS OK!
I wonder if the people of ancient Rome knew their civilization was crumbling.
Not sure why I just had this thought. I am sure it is not related to modern times.
I watched the movie Blackberry last night. It totally reminded me of building Taxi Magic, except I don’t have billions of dollars.
Great movie.
